Summary edit

Description
English: Port Isaac harbour Once a busy trading and fishing harbour, but very much a tourist destination now. The port dates from Saxon times. By the 16th century trade was mainly in pilchards, reaching a high point in the 19th century. In 1850 there were 49 fishing boats based here. When I was a child in the 1960s, this was a quiet place where us local Cornish people came to get away from the crowds, but no longer! The Doc Martin series has made it even more popular.
